[G] [Gm]
[C] [Gm] [F] [C]
Bye for me the rain, bye darling, bye for me the rain
Bye for me the crystal pools that fall [Gm] upon [F] the lane
And I'll buy for you a rainbow [G] and a million pots of gold
[C] Bye [Gm] for me now, [C] Ray, for I am too old for your gold
[Bb] [F] Bye [C]
[F] [C] for me the sun, bye darling, bye for me the [F] sun
[C] Bye for me the light that falls when day has just begun
And I'll [F] buy for you a shadow [G] to protect you from the day
[C] Bye for [Gm] me now, Ray, for I go away
[C] [Bb] Bye [C] [F] [C]
for me the wings, bye for me a sparrow, almost any [Gm] flying [F] thing
And I'll buy for you a dream, my [G] love, where robins nest and grow
[C] Bye for [Gm] me now, [Am] Ray, for the years of [C] your raystone
I [F] [C]
cannot [Dm] buy you [C] happiness, I cannot buy you years
I cannot buy you happiness in place of [Gm] all the [Am] tears
But [F] I can buy for you a raystone [G] to lay behind your head

Raystones [Gm] cheer the living [Dm] dead and not lose [Gm] to the dead
